THE CLASS LONER
I sit at the back,all by myself
The walls are painted a dark kind of gray
There are so many books on the shelf
I don't like this place, I don't want to stay
I try to block out the drone of voices
They are so plenty in here, it's suffocating
Jewelry everywhere twinkling like florescent torches
I don't even think there's the need for associating
I take my book and read with maximum concentration
Lonely as can be but I don't even look up
I know I only have to talk to change my situation
But it's me and me alone so I won't stop
I'm bored brainless but I do nothing to change it
It's like everyone here has a friend except me
I know my arrogance is making me act without wit
But then everyone here is acting kind of immaturely
I think if anyone here feels I'm worth talking to
They should come to me and not me to them
If not, I don't mind being with myself till time is due
Because me, myself and I don't want to contact any germs
I'm getting lonelier and lonelier
I think I should just talk to somebody around
But then the bell rings and now school is over
The moment has passed, I feel like burying my head in the ground
Now tomorrow will come very soon
And I will be lonely all over again
Sitting alone muttering to myself like a loon
If I don't have a friend, I'll soon go insane
I swallow my pride and walk to a girl
"Please can I be your friend?" I humbly ask
She looks me down so hard my brain starts to twirl
Oh man! I'm doomed to loneliness in this stupid class.
